Chapbook: Processing Post - Website

 After completing the book, I now add the book into my website.

First from the left menu bar, I picked the site menu, and choose "+ Add" on the right upper corner, and the choose "+ Blank Page". 



Then from the site menu on the left hand side of the page, I drag the page so that it would be under Portfolio, which can be opened from the Portfolio page.


After that I renamed the page to 'The Old BUFF', the title of the book.


Then, I put the book cover into the page by dragging it from the file explorer into the page. I then resize the book cover so that it fits the page.


Then I tried to put the preview link for the book that I have done with Canva to display the book. To achieve so, from the left menu, I choose + on the top, then find Embed Code, then choose Embed a Website, where I paste the shared link from Canva.


 However, it was not able to display the website.


So, I decided to make the cover to be the button so that it can redirect the audience to Canva and read the book.

In order to achieve this, click on the photo, then choose link from the second right, then from a menu would popped out. I then choose the Website




Then I added a paragraph of introduction of the book to the page.


After that, I copied the "return" button from London Cityscape. It saves me a lot of time.


I also have to go back to the Portfolio page, to add a button that can direct to the book page. 

To start with, I added the book cover and copied the button from the Talented Music. Then I changed the destination of the button the Old BUFF page. 



*Updates*

Finally I added a short brief heading for the two projects this term.

William Klein: Tatiana + Marie Rose + Camels, Morocco (Vogue), 1958

Image
 The second photographer that I am going to research for re-assessment would be William Klein (1926-2022). He was an American-born French photographer, and was well-known for fashion and street photography. According to  Howard Greenberg Gallery (n.d.), Klein did not study photography formally but instead he studied painting at the City College of New York, and he won his first camera in the army when he was stationed in Germany.  TATIANA AND MARIE-ROSE WITH CAMELS, MOROCCO, 1958 The photograph was taken with black-and-white colour negative, as at that time colour films were not widely used. It was taken in a sunny day in Morocco, as we can see the light came behind from the photographer onto the models' body and creating shadows. Klein took this photograph through his eye-level, because we can see that the photo itself was levelled at a low height, probably he was sitting or squatting down his body. The photograph created some contrasts between the female models and the ...

Processing Post: Shot One & Contact Sheet

Image
 I took my first shooting on 11/11/2023 in London. I have been to a couple of places to under my photo shooting. I have created a contact sheet for the shooting but it contains 55 pages, and I will put the contact sheet into a Google Drive folder, so that it would save a lot space for the post. There was a total number of 1,648 photos and 3 videos. I have used panning, rule of third, leading line and low angle for my photos. Here is ZFC_6659.jpg, this is a night shot that I have taken at St. Pancras Station. In order to avoid being noisy, I have used a very low ISO of 200 and as a result I have to lower my shutter speed to capture more light. I set the aperture to f/4, which is the greatest aperture I could have in a Nikon Z 24-70mm f/4. I shot it in portrait because it would looks upstraight. I used 70mm in order to have a tighter and narrower composition.  Another photo that I would like to talk about is ZFC_4630.jpg. The setting that I used was 1/400s f/8 ISO-200. The reas...

Diane Arbus: "Child with a toy hand grenade in Central Park, N.Y.C. 1962"

Image
Diane Arbus (1923-1972) was an American photographer, known for photographing "the fringes of the society" (Artnet, 2022). According to Artnet (2022), she was also known for her photographs of children, celebrities and the society, and she committed suicide in 1971, when she was at the height of her career. The image of "Child with a toy grenade in Central Park, NYC, 1962" brought a contrast between the boy, Colin Wood, and the children behind him. The photograph drew my attention when I was looking for a photograph of Arbus' collection "on freak" as I can feel how desperate and anger the boy was. Arbus photographed the boy who was staring at the camera through eye level, for me it created the feeling to the audience that we should immerse to her perspective. I believe that his anger was expressed through his facial expression and his hand gesture, and children at his age were supposed to be happy. And I think that he might face some difficulties at th...
